Imagine you get the news: you have cancer. Not just cancer, but a cancer with no cure, so rare that no doctor anywhere nearby knows how to treat it. Imagine you’re working, raising kids, caring for aging parents … and now traveling over 1,000 miles from home every few weeks to join a clinical trial that can hopefully prolong your life.

How are you going to pay for that? Expensive flights, hotels, and Ubers … while trying to hold to your job and care for your family.

That’s the situation Debra Allen was facing after her diagnosis in June 2025 … until Eye on Grace stepped in.

After completing plaque brachytherapy, she learned she was an ideal candidate for a medical study underway in Miami to determine if Quisinostat can prevent or delay metastasis, which is a major concern for all cancer patients.

Every three weeks, she travels over 1,300 miles from Dallas to Miami to be part of the Adjuvant Quisnostat Medical Trial. The treatment-related travel rocked their lives. 

Eye on Grace has helped fund two of these trips so far, which totaled well over $2,000.

“Knowing we can travel to Miami every three weeks, so I can receive what hopefully will be life-saving treatments without putting our family in financial difficulties, is a blessing,” Debra says.

“Thank you for your generous support of Eye on Grace Foundation. No one wants to hear ‘you have cancer,’ especially when it's followed by ‘it's extremely rare, and there is no cure.’ Those are soul-crushing words.

“Through your charitable donations to Eye on Grace Foundation, we can travel to locations to see specialists who are working to find a cure. Your support gives us hope for a positive outcome by providing the opportunity to seek out the best possible care.”
